A MAJOR office supplies chain has announced it will be closing another location.
Staples, a home office supply retail chain which has been in business since 1986, will be closing a location in Westfield, Massachussets.
The Staples at 273B E. Main St. in the Westgate Plaza will be shuttering its doors on October 6.

It comes as the company announced they were closing other locations in the northeast.
